Black-chinned emperor tamarin

Mammals

The black-chinned emperor tamarin, Saguinus imperator imperator, is one of the two subspecies of the emperor tamarin, a New World monkey. Unlike the other subspecies, the bearded emperor tamarin, it has no beard. It is spread through the rainforests of Brazil, Peru and Bolivia. It is the same size as the emperor tamarin and eats almost the same food, which is bugs, spiders, fruit, tree sap and nectar. After a gestation of 140 to 145 days a female usually gives birth to one or two young. The article text gives its IUCN status as Data Deficient, because little is known of its conservation, although the article infobox cites a later assessment that lists it as Least Concern.
